Fast, Reliable Window Replacement Across Palm Beach Gardens
Window replacement in Palm Beach Gardens typically costs between $800 and $2,400 per opening for impact-rated units, with full-frame replacement in gated communities like PGA National and Mirasol running $1,400 to $3,200 per opening once permit, HOA submittal, and installation labor are included. Most jobs in Palm Beach Gardens take one to two days per opening, though HOA architectural review can add two to six weeks before work begins. If you’re dealing with fogged glass, corroded aluminum frames, or windows that howl during hurricane season, call us at (786) 829-6722 and we’ll walk the job with you in person.
TruePane has worked in Palm Beach Gardens long enough to know the two questions every homeowner asks before the first measurement: will the HOA approve this, and will it pass the building department. We answer both before you spend a dollar on product. The Window Replacement team handles the submittal paperwork, the permit application, and the install with one crew and one point of contact.
Key Takeaways for Palm Beach Gardens Homeowners
- Impact-rated windows are a code requirement here, not an upgrade. Any permitted replacement must meet Florida Building Code wind-borne debris standards at 130+ mph design wind speeds.
- Gated communities like PGA National, BallenIsles, Mirasol, and Frenchman’s Creek require HOA architectural control approval before permit submittal. Frame color, profile, and grid pattern all get reviewed.
- Most Palm Beach Gardens homes built 1980 through 2005 still wear original builder-grade aluminum single-pane windows. They are past their service life and corroding from salt air.
- Budget $800 to $3,200 per opening depending on product line, frame condition, and HOA requirements. A written line-item quote means no surprises on the back end.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach Gardens’s Preferred Window Replacement Company
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule he keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That applies to the glass, the frame, the flashing, the sealant line, and the paperwork. Our crews have worked in hundreds of Palm Beach Gardens homes, from condos off PGA Boulevard to estates in Frenchman’s Creek. We know which communities spec bronze frames with narrow sightlines and which ones will accept a standard white impact casement without argument. That knowledge saves you weeks of re-submittal and the cost of a second product order.
Every TruePane technician is background-checked and uniformed. They measure every opening twice and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every window replacement in Palm Beach Gardens we touch. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You call, a person picks up, and you get a straight answer.
We also stand behind the work with a Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no fine print that covers neither the frame nor the seal. That’s a square deal, and it’s why homeowners who had a bad experience with a previous contractor call us first.
Our Window Replacement Services in Palm Beach Gardens
Full Frame Replacement
Full frame replacement means the entire window comes out down to the rough opening, and a new unit goes in with new flashing, new jamb seals, and a clean sealant line. In Palm Beach Gardens, most homes built in the 1980s and 1990s are CBS construction with aluminum frames that have been eaten by salt-laden air for decades. When those frames are compromised, an insert won’t fix the real problem. We replace the whole assembly with an impact-rated unit that meets current FBC wind load requirements and matches what the HOA committee approved. A typical full frame replacement in PGA National or BallenIsles runs $1,400 to $3,200 per opening, depending on product line and grid pattern.

Insert Window Replacement
If the existing frame is square, structurally sound, and free of advanced corrosion, an insert replacement is a faster and less disruptive option. The new window fits inside the existing frame, which preserves the interior and exterior trim and keeps the job cleaner. But in Palm Beach Gardens, salt air tests every frame. We inspect the jamb and sill with a moisture meter before recommending an insert, because reusing a corroded frame near the Atlantic coast leads to seal failure within a few years. A quality insert replacement runs $800 to $1,800 per opening.

Storm Window Replacement
Storm windows get debated in Florida for good reason. A true impact-rated storm window can add a layer of protection to an older home without a full replacement, but it won’t bring the primary window up to FBC impact compliance. In Palm Beach Gardens, storm windows are best used as a supplementary layer on homes that already have structurally sound primary windows but want extra debris protection. We’ll tell you honestly whether a storm window is the right call or whether the money is better spent on a full impact-rated replacement. Budget $500 to $900 per storm unit if this is the right path.

Energy-Efficient Upgrade
Palm Beach Gardens sits roughly five miles from the Atlantic, and west-facing golf course exposures can cook a living room in July. The right low-E glass with the correct solar heat gain coefficient keeps rooms cooler without making them cave-dark. Here’s the detail most contractors skip: on west-facing exposures, an SHGC that’s too low will darken the interior and push up lighting costs. We spec window packages by orientation, not by default. An energy-efficient impact-rated replacement typically runs $1,000 to $2,200 per opening in Palm Beach Gardens, and the utility savings are real but secondary to the hurricane protection.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach Gardens
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. In Palm Beach Gardens, where HOA committees often restrict frame colors and grid patterns, manufacturer selection matters. Some communities accept only a narrow set of product lines that pair the right aesthetic with the right DP rating. We quote Andersen, Pella, and Marvin side by side on paper so you see the structural and warranty differences line by line. Our shop stocks common parts and hardware for these lines, which means faster turnarounds for insert replacements and hardware repairs in North Palm Beach, Jupiter, West Palm Beach, and the rest of Palm Beach Gardens.
Common Window Replacement Problems We See in Palm Beach Gardens Homes
- Corroded aluminum frames on 1980s and 1990s homes. The original builder-grade aluminum sliders in communities like PGA National and Mirasol are hitting 40 years old. Salt-laden ocean air has pitted the tracks, frozen the rollers, and weakened the jamb seal area. These windows fail both structurally and in the HOA review for visible corrosion.
- HOA rejection on frame color or grid pattern. A homeowner picks an impact-rated window that meets FBC wind loads, submits it to the architectural control committee, and gets rejected because the bronze finish is wrong or the grid pattern is too wide. We source from manufacturers whose offerings satisfy both requirements so the product passes on the first submittal.
- Fogged glass with an otherwise fine frame. In homes closer to the coast, failed seals are common by year 15 or 20. The question is whether the frame itself is worth saving. We inspect the jamb with a moisture meter and tell you straight whether an insert with new insulated glass is a good investment or a temporary fix.
- Windows that don’t meet current FBC impact standards. Any permitted replacement in Palm Beach Gardens must meet 130+ mph design wind speeds. If your windows predate the 2001 Florida Building Code update, they almost certainly don’t comply. That’s not a negotiation point with the building department; it’s the starting line.
Pricing for Window Replacement in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
An insert replacement in Palm Beach Gardens runs $800 to $1,800 per opening. Full frame replacement runs $1,400 to $3,200 per opening. Storm windows run $500 to $900 per unit. These ranges assume impact-rated glass, standard grid patterns, and typical frame conditions.
What moves the price: HOA-mandated custom colors or grid patterns that push you into a higher product line, full frame replacement versus insert, second-story access, and whether the opening needs sill or jamb repair once the old unit is out. Permit fees and HOA submittal paperwork are real costs we line-item on the estimate. We offer a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, and a free written quote with no obligation.

FAQs - Window Replacement in Palm Beach Gardens
Yes. Mirasol, like every gated community in Palm Beach Gardens, requires two separate approvals: HOA architectural control committee sign-off on frame color, profile, and grid pattern, plus a city building permit verifying FBC impact compliance. We handle both. We prepare the HOA submittal package with product specs and finish samples, then pull the permit once the committee approves. Skipping either one will stop the job mid-install and can leave you with a code violation you will have to answer for when you sell. Call (786) 829-6722 and we’ll walk you through the exact sequence for your community.
Sometimes, but in Palm Beach Gardens you should expect a frame assessment first. Salt air near the Atlantic weakens aluminum jamb seals and corrodes the weep holes that let moisture drain. If our moisture meter shows the frame is still square and structurally sound, an insert replacement with new insulated glass solves the fogged seal problem. If the frame shows advanced corrosion or the jamb has softened, reusing it means you’ll be back in three to five years with the same failure. We inspect before we quote, and we’ll tell you which path makes sense for your home. Call (786) 829-6722 to book that inspection.
For Palm Beach Gardens homes, look for a U-factor of 0.50 or lower and an SHGC between 0.25 and 0.35 for most exposures. South and west-facing openings on golf course lots can tolerate the lower end of that SHGC range, but going too low turns rooms into caves and raises lighting costs. East and north exposures handle a slightly higher SHGC fine. We spec window packages by orientation and glass package, not by a one-size-fits-all energy sticker. The right combination cuts cooling load without killing daylight. Give us a call at (786) 829-6722 and we’ll put the numbers in writing for your specific floor plan.
BallenIsles has architectural control standards that specify frame profiles, colors, and grid patterns for window replacements, and some sections do restrict double-hung profiles in favor of casements or fixed units that preserve the original sightlines. An impact-rated double-hung window that meets FBC wind loads can still be rejected by the BallenIsles committee if the profile doesn’t match what was originally approved for that street or section. We pull the community-specific guidelines before we quote so you never buy product the committee won’t approve. Call (786) 829-6722 and we’ll check your section’s current standards.
Read the warranty document before you schedule the first measurement. Most builder warranties in Palm Beach Gardens cover the original structure and original window installation for a defined period, but they void coverage if an unlicensed contractor modifies openings or if the replacement work damages the surrounding stucco, waterproofing, or framing. We’re a licensed and insured contractor, and we document the existing conditions before we touch anything. If the builder warranty is still active, we’ll tell you which portions of the replacement work could trigger a claim dispute and how to sequence the job to avoid it. Call (786) 829-6722 and we’ll review your warranty with you before you sign anything.
The Dual Compliance Reality in Palm Beach Gardens
Every permitted window replacement in Palm Beach Gardens must pass two separate reviews before the first pane gets ordered. The Florida Building Code requires impact-rated windows that meet 130+ mph design wind speeds, because the entire city sits in a wind-borne debris region. That’s the building department’s concern, and the standards are rigid. But then there’s the HOA review. In PGA National, BallenIsles, Mirasol, and Frenchman’s Creek, the community’s architectural control committee separately reviews frame color, profile, sightline, and grid pattern. A window that passes the building department gets rejected by the committee. A window the committee loves might not meet FBC impact standards.
This dual compliance dance is the defining challenge of window replacement in Palm Beach Gardens. Neighboring Jupiter and West Palm Beach have some HOAs, but the concentration of gated golf communities here is on another level. The committees in PGA National alone represent thousands of homes across dozens of sub-communities, and each has its own finish standard. We know which manufacturers’ product lines can satisfy both the committee’s aesthetic requirements and the FBC’s design pressure minimums, because we’ve gone through the submittal process for these communities many times. We recently replaced corroded 1980s aluminum sliders in a PGA National home where the HOA specified a custom bronze frame color and narrow sightline grid pattern. Our crew sourced a fusion-welded impact-rated casement from a short list of manufacturers matching both the committee’s aesthetic and FBC DP minimums, then installed it with flashing tape and new jamb seals to stop the salt-driven oxidation that had eaten the original tracks. The submittal passed on the first round, the permit was issued, and the install was done in one day.
That’s what we mean when we say local knowledge matters here. A contractor who only knows FBC code but not the Mirasol color standards will cost you weeks of re-submittal and a second product order. A contractor who knows the HOAs but not the structural requirements will sell you a pretty window that fails the building department. We know both, because we’ve been doing this work in Palm Beach Gardens long enough to have seen every rejection reason the committees can invent. If you’re replacing windows in this city, make sure your contractor can name the specific HOA finish standard for your section before they quote you a product. If they can’t, they haven’t done the work.
